Made in the heart of the Côte de Nuits, it combines the power and structure Gevrey-Chambertin is known for with the finesse and depth that define Hubert Lignier’s wines. The estate’s long history, dating back to 1880, gives this wine a real sense of place and tradition.MakuprofiiliIn the glass, this Gevrey-Chambertin typically shows a brilliant ruby-garnet color with good clarity and brightness. The nose is layered with red cherry, wild raspberry, rose petal, earth, and subtle spice, with a touch of forest floor and mineral nuance that reflects its Burgundian origin. On the palate, it is refined yet structured, with supple red fruit, firm but polished tannins, and a savoury, lightly earthy finish. There is often a sense of depth and concentration beneath the elegance, making it both immediately appealing and suitable for further development. With proper cellaring, the wine should continue to gain complexity over the next several years.ViininvalmistusThe grapes come from Gevrey-Chambertin in the Côte de Nuits, an area known for producing Pinot Noir with depth, structure, and a distinctly mineral, earthy character.
